Book Description
Excerpt from A Diary of the Siege of the Legations in Peking: During the Summer of 1900 The author of this Diary of the Siege of the Peking Legations, Mr. Nigel Oliphant, comes of a house accustomed to sieges from of old. The founder of the Oliphants, or rather the first of the Norman family of Olifard, or Olifand, who received lands in Scotland, was David Olifard. He was a godson of David I., King of Scotland, whose life he saved at the Siege of Winchester, in 1141. In 1304, Sir William Oliphant held Stirling Castle against Edward I., displaying the utmost tenacity, courage, and resource, after the rest of Scotland had submitted, and surrendering only when the English artillery, and the great engine called 'The Warwolf, ' made resistance impossible. With the fall of Stirling the cause of Scotland died, till it was revived, two years later, by Robert Bruce.
